Snakes Sent By Mail.

eve frequently get snakes, frogs, hsss and alligators by mail, said Supt. of Mails Alexander yesterday. "Oi course the snakes are small I don't know what they're sent for. Tho frogs, snakes, and alligators are mostly mailed from Florida. The bees are queen bees, sent in little blocks of wood with 8 hol bored in the center and a piece of wire netting over it. Sometimes we find packages of butter, cherries, peaches, and strawberries, bottles of oil, syrup, cologne, and all sorts of odd things, which we do not forward because it would be against the law. Butter and oils and syrup and such things are apt to spoil other mail matter. We com. municate with the parties to whom the things are addressed and they tell us to send them on by express. When We do not receive any reply we send the things to the dead letter office.
 Wedding cake? Oh, yes, we get lots of it, addressed to all parts of the world, but it never goes. It is also on the catalogue of unmailable matter. Last week we sent fifteen hundred box. es of it to the dead letter office that had accumulated here in three months. l don't know what they'll do with it at Washington, but there must be enough wedding cake in the dead letter office to start a thousand first. class lassbakeries.-Rhiladelphta Times.

Farmers Arbitrate, Don't Litigate.

The law fayors arbitration as peace sble and inexpensive method of settling difficulties. In many of the States there are statutory provisions, by which a judgment of the Court may be render ed on the award or finding of arbitra- tors, concerning matter duly submit ted to them. It is almost always pos. sibie to take case out of Court, and submit it to referees at any stage of it's progress. In the absence of any statu- tory provisions it is always lawful for parties to agree to submit their differ ences to arbitrators, and abide by their decision. The agreement to do so may be either oral or written. but the latter is the better way. The form is not cs- genital, except that the meaning should be carefully expressed. It is GU tomary. in addition to the agreements for the parties to execute to each other an ar bitration bond, conditioned on each party performing the award given by

ladies' Riding Habits.

Ladies riding habits retain the Eng fish style, with the narrow scant skirt, that is so safe for horsewomen, the closely fitting trousers, and the neat position waist. Broadcloth is chosen for the bask and skirt, but a more elas
 tic cloth, similar to Jersey cloth, is pre- ferred for the trousers. The colors are black, dark blue, dark green, brown pnd olive. The simple little position l six is lined with silk, interlined, and well padded to give q full bust. It is gle-breasted, with high standing col lar, and the crocheted bullet buttons that fasten it and fasten the tight sleeves are it's only trimmings. It has two short darts, and its front edges curve outward on the bust; it is only two or three inches below the waist line in front, and is still shorter on the hips, until it curves down to the shorn square basque, which has now no peats, but is lined and interlined to stiffen it, is left open up the middle seam, and lapped an inch across from left to right at the waist line; there is short side form on each side, and these are slightly Tapped toward the open middle seam; two but tons define the waist line; cord edge of braid is tENe finish which is preferred to stitching CT galloon. The habS skirt is.two and quarter yards wide at the lower edge, and is sloped perfectly plain at the top to dispense with gathers; for this season elastic cloths are used that may be shaped to the figure smoothly, and thus avoid all clumsy flulness in the saddle. The tailor's rule for the length of the habit skirt is to let the front just reach the floor when the wear CT stands, and add to this ten inches for the greater lengths. This skirt is pe- culiarly c pred to fit smoothly when the rider is seated in the saddle; it is open- ed on the left side, and there is a pocket in the placket-seam; the top is faced in- stead of having a belt, and there is g row of hooks around it to fasten it to loops inside the position basque. The edge has q stitched hem two inches wide, and instead of being weighted to keep it down when the uorse is in mo- tion, there is now a tape-strap or loop on each side, and when a foot is passed through each of these loops the skirt is well held in place. The trousers may be short Knickerbockers if the wearer likes high boots, but are most usually long; the ribbed cloth of which they are made is like stockinet on tue wrong side, and is smoother on the right, but with out luster; they are made to button in front, cord is in the waistband to ad- just them properly, and they are strap ped under the feet. Such habits cost from 500 to $l00. -Rarper'S BazGr..

Troublesome Letters to E1itors.

l. Perhaps as many as half of the etters received by editors, explain that the articles accompanying them were written ''in great haste," as though the statement were calculated to recom- mend the articles for publication. h. stead. it would be wise to try and con- ,eal the unhappy fact, though, whether told of it or not, the experienced editor can usually tell at glance just how much pains and care have been bestow- ed on the manuscripts submitted to him. z. Letters from strangers dilating largely upon family troubles, and re- hearsing causes why money is needed for matter sent, form, perhaps, the most crying class received by editors. The accoptability of articles in well regu- lated publication office cannot depend upon the pecuniary needs of their writ ers. Almost invariably the article ac- ,ompanying such letter is weak and worthless. 8. Letters asking that ar- iclos ac companying them should be im- mediately returned, or that lengthy reply should be sent "at once," and yet inclosing no stamp to prepay postage, are usually thrown away. The bills for the necessary stamps to accede to such unreasonable requests wonld mount up formidably in the office of any journal {. Letters from strangers, asking if certain articles would be acceptable, are usually, even if inclosing stamp, the source of unnecessary trouble. Any one who reads q certain journal must know, if he have common sense, just about what kind of articles are wanted for it, and the value of whatever he may write usually depends more upon his treatment of q subject than on the sub iect itself. It is best to send along what ever has been thought of, with stamps for it's return, if not available. There are numberless other kinds of trouble, some letters received by editors, but those named include, perhaps. tho most important. GO0d Cheer.

From {. .clstv to Trade.

Highflyer is the son of rich old law yer here. The rich old lawyer told his son & year ago that To did not want him to be out at night after half-past ten. One night the son, who was fond of so. ciety and of whom society was fond of, did not reach the big stone house of Highdyer pere until midnight Old Highflyer put nick in the post. but said nothing. By-and-by it occurred again. This time young Highhyer was informed that a repetition of the offense would be punished with punishment witbent pay. The next night the clock was striking l2 when young Highfyer walked softly up the velvety stairs. Old Highnyer met him at the top, with watch in hand, and formally and sol- emnly read his order of expulsion. The young man slept his last sleep and ate his last breakfast in that house with az
 parent calmness and conposure, and then walked out and down the broad steps, smoking his last cigarette. He repaired at once to 8 big dry goods store and obtained position as sales man with little difficulty. He got room and arranged for board. A year has elapsed. Father and son are firm, and no communication has passed between them; probably none will as they are determined characters. The funny thing about it all is that the gay dam scls of society, for whose sake young Uighllyer sacrificed home and fortune, nov cut him dead when they meet him on the streets. "He is in trade, you know" and therefore damned socially here. 4 law student is all right, but a dry goods clerk isn't If l were the youth, though, 1 wouldn't mind it. Among the leaders of Washington so- ciety are the wives of hotel-keeper, a grocer, a stone-cutter, a droyer.a stage
 driver, car-condlctor, and dozen, nay, hundred, other varieties of "tradesmann and ''mechanic" and ''la- borer." Let him accumulate shekels. and all will be well. At present, how ever, it's pretty roughly Washington Correspondent PhjlGdciphia Press.
